Falling through the porch is a small price to pay for having such a pretty area all for you!!! Although you might not agree, having been the one to do the actual falling!!!<br /><br />SarahxSarah @ Modern Country Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10674775708432670104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208458117818248970.post-9073657252011839822012-09-09T11:19:22.182-04:002012-09-09T11:19:22.182-04:00gorgeous colors!! glad you are ok.

It makes a home look loved and cared for; I say that, knowing I have the old milk box and a bit of wood trim that needs painting on my house!<br /><br />My uncle lives in the home my great-grandfather built with various out buildings, including the barn built by my grandfather. The trim on the house and the barn doors always look great painted a cheery red. The whole piece of property strikes me as "the real deal" in all its non-chippy-mountain-and-shoreline existence. We all have our own preferences. :)<br /><br /><br />I hope you're having a wonderful weekend!<br /><br />-KarenMy Little Home and Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01519563352358635257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208458117818248970.post-40098335335083581662012-09-08T08:45:09.081-04:002012-09-08T08:45:09.081-04:00I like the chippiness!
